Hiroyuki Imaishi × Kazuki Nakashima’s Newest Work Promare to Open in 2019

Director Hiroyuki Imaishi and screenwriter Kazuki Nakashima are in charge of a new animated movie titled Promare, slated to open somewhere in 2019. The title’s first promotional video and teaser visual have been released!

Promare will be produced by XFLAG studio, known for the smartphone game Monster Strike, and animation production studio TRIGGER (Darling in the Franxx, Kill la Kill). In addition to Imaishi and Nakashima, the staff includes character designer Shigeto Koyama, music composer Hiroyuki Sawano, background director Tomotaku Kubo and title logo designer Masashi Ichifuru. Even Sanzigen is to help with the CG parts.

Both the trailer and visual are using the catchphrase ‘Sekai Dai Enjou‘ (lit. The world in flames). The released teaser visual has been illustrated by Koyama and designed by Ichifuru. It shows a burning world, a mysterious black character, and the main character holding a rod resembling a fire extinguishing tool called ‘Matoi’.

Imaishi, Nakajima, Koyama and Sawano prepared some illustrated cards with comments and signs which you can check out at Promare‘s official website or Twitter account (@promare_movie).
